One of the things that makes Dr. Ben Carson a darling of the Tea Party is that he says it like it is, sometimes even to his detriment. But then again that is such a breath of fresh air in a landscape dominated by poll testing soundbites and political correctness. Dr. Carson was recently on Newsmax TV’s “America’s Forum” hosted by J. D. Salinger and he had a pretty strong comment about President Obama’s activities concerning his Amnesty via Executive Fiat.

Hayworth opened by asking Carson about any advice he had for Republicans about the upcoming fight over Department of Homeland Security funding brought about by the president’s executive actions on amnesty.

“I would say break the funding for Homeland Security up into parcels. Don’t present it as a whole bill. That makes it much more difficult for him to stand in the way,” Carson said.

“And, if he does stand in the way, particularly with things that are vital to the security of this county, then I think we can start talking about treason.”

Hayworth, who clearly agreed with Carson but seemed unable to believe a presidential candidate would speak so frankly, asked him, “Doctor, would you repeat that statement?”

Obama with his Muslim brother, Malik, Who Egypt States is Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist

When is treason treason? When is it not?

The answer to the first question is when it is committed by you or by me. The answer to the second question is when it is committed by Barack Obama.

It’s common knowledge that President Obama’s closest adviser, Valerie Jarrett, was born in Iran and that former Hillary Clinton’s closest adviser , Huma Abedin, is Iranian and we, also, know that John Kerry’s daughter is married to an Iranian-American with extensive family in Iran. Coincidence? Probably. But, coincidences make me uncomfortable. It certainly is not prima facie evidence of treason by any of them.

But, I am wondering what constitutes giving aid and comfort to the enemy? I’m wondering about that because of this recent post at Conservative Hideout 2.0. Here is the part that caught my attention:

The Gateway Pundit is reporting that Dr. Michael Ledeen, (an expert in all things pertaining to the Middle East) is revealing that in the run-up to the 2008 Presidential Election, then-candidate Obama sent an personal emissary to Tehran with the message that when he became President, his policies would be much more Iran friendly.

He sent William G. Miller who was former Ambassador to the Ukraine and served in the American Embassy in Tehran.

It’s true that the US is not at war with Iran. However, the US is in a long drawn out war on terror. And, the US has officially declared Iran to be a supporter of terrorism around the globe. So, it’s really semantics, isn’t it?

Then, according to Judicial Watch, Obama has not only a kill list but a terrorist :hands off” list, as well:

The Obama administration appears to have a terrorist “hands off” list that permits individuals with extremist ties to enter the country, according to internal Department of Homeland Security (DHS) documents obtained by a United States Senator.

It’s unimaginable that any government would do this, but it seems like the Obama administration is constantly breaking new ground. The disturbing details of this secret initiative were made public this week by Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley, who has obtained DHS electronic mail discussing what could be a terrorist “hands off” list. The exchange includes a 2012 email chain between U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) asking whether to admit an individual with ties to various terrorist groups. The individual had scheduled an upcoming flight into the U.S., according to an announcement issued by the senator.

You have to wonder whose side is our President on, in the War on Terror?

If you’re like me, you’ve become numbed to President Obama’s lawlessness. Flaunting our laws, the constitution, and federal court orders is routine for this President. No where is his lawlessness more in-your-face than his refusal to enforce our immigration laws. He not only will not enforce our laws against illegal immigrants, his administration promotes illegal immigration from mexico and Central America. But, if this story at Freedom Outpost is true, he is secretly flying in plane loads of illegal Muslim immigrants, too.

The former Kalitta Charter pilot recalled Tennessee Rep. Rick Womick (R), a former Air Force pilot and commercial Boeing 777 airline pilot, admitted to flying five flights with Somali immigrants on board from London to New York City. According to Dennis, Womick said that flights would leave the US, land in the UK and be designated as empty for return, but the reality is that every seat would be filled with illegal Muslims. As he landed on the east coast as instructed, he would taxi right past immigrations and customs. The illegals were let off the airplane, given thousands of dollars, along with other benefits.

So, it’s shouldn’t be surprising that many people believe Mr. Obama is a Muslim and not a Christian, as he proclaims. One thing is for sure, His actions say he cares more about Muslims than he does about Americans.

The debate rages on: Is Barack Obama an epically incompetent amateur? Or is he a cunning and treacherous domestic enemy well on his way to destroying the United States that most of us have known and loved all our lives.

My money is on the latter hypothesis, of course, since the law of averages dictates that no honestAmerican could drive us so unerringly down the road to ruin unless he knew where he was going from the git-go — or in this case, from the Gitmo, that holding pen for the Islamist killers he’s so eagerly setting loose — men like Mohammad Fazi, pictured here in his jihadi heyday:

Then there’s Osama bin Laden’s former bodyguard, soon to be released so’s he can take up farming. Ee-aye-ee-aye-oh. From the NY Post:

If you thought President Obama’s release of five top Taliban commanders in exchange for POW Bowe Bergdahl was bad, wait until you see what his Gitmo parole board plans.

Desperate to empty the Guantanamo Bay prison by the end of his term, Obama quietly is giving “get out of jail free” cards for the flimsiest of excuses.

One al Qaeda suspect captured in Afghanistan is considered reformed because he took up yoga and read a biography of the Dalai Lama. Another is eligible for release because of his “positive attitude.”

And one longtime detainee, a former bodyguard for Osama bin Laden, is now harmless because he’s going to start a “milk and honey farm.”

The Great Humanitarian apparently plans to send all his jihadist brothers back to the ‘Stans, presumably with 40 acres and a goat, where they can harvest milk and honey and human heads in unfettered perpetuity. Meanwhile, our courageous “opposition” party sits on its glutinous derriere and wrings its palsied hands:

Despite anger in many quarters of the nation over the president’s prisoner swap, Republicans are backing off impeachment threats because they fear it would rally President Obama’s Democratic base and kill the GOP’s chances to win the Senate, according to congressional insiders and sources. (Washington Examiner)

Such poltroonery makes sense only if the GOP plans to impeach and wants to ensure conviction. Because someone has to stop this man and to hell with the Democratic base. And the sanction must be severe enough to deter future would-be tyrants. Otherwise, it’s Requiescat In Pace U.S.A.

In 2010, The Taliban claimed U.S. soldier Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl had converted to Islam and had taught them bomb-making techniques. Bergdahl had also changed his name to Abdullah, the Taliban claimed, though the mainstream media largely ignored the story, seeing it as comparable to the tale of Sgt. Brody in the fictional Homeland television series on Showtime.

The U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) also dismissed the claims, insinuating that it was jihadist propaganda. But in the aftermath of Sgt. Bergdahl’s release yesterday, more information has come to light, raising further questions as to whether the Taliban had in fact been telling the truth about Sgt. Bergdahl. The circumstances behind the sergeant’s disappearance and kidnapping remains suspect. Why he seemingly walked off of his forward operating base in 2009, an infringement upon basic standard operating procedures, has not been explained.

As the 2016 presidential elections approach I’ve been thinking about who might become the next president. Folks, it grieves me to say it’s going to be the same old crap that we see every four to eight years. Professional politicians, lawyers, liars and frauds. Some have spent their entire “careers” calculating each and every move they made for this one event. As I look at the list of possible candidates I think to myself … are these the best that America has to offer? If so, we are in very deep do-do. As I think about the upcoming campaigns we’ll be fed the “qualifications” for the presidency each one has. Do qualifications make a difference?

Barack Obama was ushered into the White House solely on the color of his skin. Barack Obama, pot head, crack smoker, community organizer, junior U.S. Senator for a little over three years … 143 total work days in those three years. There were 304 “in session” work days in the first two years at the time he announced his bid for the presidency.

All that aside, we know the perpetual questions about his Marxist associations, his 20 years in a racist, anti-American ”church”, his membership in the Democratic Socialists of America, his view that the U.S. Constitution is a “flawed” document, and the possibility of being a foreign national … he basically said out of his own mouth that he was going to destroy the American way of life using the term “fundamentally change” … but amazingly enough a guy who is as anti-America as one can get, becomes president … because he’s black.

What the hell has happened to America? Does “Affirmative Action” include the office of the presidency?

So, what’s next, a female president? Are we going to allow Hillary Clinton to become president? Why not? We’ve dumbed down the office of the presidency to the point of being an embarrassment to the entire world. Our allies don’t trust anything Obama says and our enemies know he’s not a threat. It’s more important to be ”historic” than do what’s best for the nation. So what the heck, let’s do another historic move to the demise of America and put Hillary in the White House. I mean she’s one of, if not the most corrupt people on the planet … but we’ll make history. Let’s go from Affirmative Action to Total Corruption. We’ve gone this far that there is no coming back to any sense of integrity, we might as well “go for the gold”.

America has been sold out. What’s pathetic is she didn’t even go to the “highest bidder”. She’s been sold out by politicians addicted to power. By others who hate her heritage. By others for simple envy. The media has betrayed the American people through disinformation and hiding the truth of the betrayal they’ve known about all along. But alas, none of those will enjoy the fruits of their betrayal. When America is finally stripped of her heritage, power and sovereignty, and the freedoms and liberties that so many have died to protect are all gone, the betrayers will reap exactly what they have sown … betrayal.

Respect for its authority, [the Constitution] compliance with its laws, acquiescence in its measures, are duties enjoined by the fundamental maxims of true liberty.

All obstructions to the execution of the laws, all combinations and associations, under whatever plausible character, with the real design to direct, control, counteract, or awe the regular deliberation and action of the constituted authorities, are destructive of this fundamental principle, and of fatal tendency.

However combinations or associations of the above description may now and then answer popular ends, they are likely, in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion.

Electing Barack Obama was a disservice and betrayal of those who sacrificed for America. Hillary as president will be simply a continuing of that betrayal.

Though in reality almost all of the potential candidates fall into the same category as Obama and Hillary Clinton. The betrayal is the same even if it progresses at a slower pace.

In spite of all the reasons I have to not like this President, Barack Obama, it is with a heavy heart that I approach the question in today’s title. I have had strong differences with most of the presidents in my life time, however, I have never questioned a president’s loyalty to country or to the men and women who serve our country. Yet the bizarre handling by this president and his surrogates of the attacks on our diplomatic mission in Libya and the events leading up to the attacks, compels me to ask if Barack Obama and his senior advisor committed treason against the men in Benghazi. The President and his administration have been less than forthcoming about what happened in Benghazi, Libya. What we do know is only due to information leaking out and made public by Fox News. No other media outlet is covering this story.

Let’s start with a definition of treason and then see if the story that is unfolding fits.

We know that since the fall of Gaddafi that Libya was a very unstable place with many jihadists militia groups roaming the country. We know that there had been many violent demonstrations in the months prior to the attacks including attacks on British diplomats and a bomb thrown against the wall of our Benghazi consulate. We know that Ambassador Stevens asked several times for additional security and those requests were denied. We know that there was a sixteen man security force there under the command of Lt. Col. Andy Woods and, against his recommendation , he and his men were ordered out of Libya weeks before the attack.

So, we have a diplomatic mission in one of the most dangerous places in the world and not only does this administration deny requests for increased security, it removes what security was there. How does one explain that? How does one rationalize that? It’s as if this administration was setting the stage for a crisis situation to occur. But, where is the logic in that? Stella Paul, writing forAmerican Thinker has a theory. She asks her readers to think about what this administration did in the Fast and Furious fiasco. They intentional walked guns into the hands of Mexican drug cartels to prove the 90% lie that most of the guns used in the border violence were coming from American gun dealers. They planned to use that lie to attack our Second Amendment right to bear arms. Ms. paul suggest that maybe the Benghazi fiasco was designed to attack our First Amendment right of free speech. When we consider how quickly and how well organized this administration’s response to the Benghazi attack was to sell the idea that this attack was due to someone abusing their right to free speech, it begins to give Ms. Paul’s theory some credence. Think about it. Obama, Susan Rice, and Hillary Clinton all out putting the blame for the attack on some YouTube video that insulted the Muslim religion. And, even after the truth began leaking out, this president kept up the story of the video for weeks.

This Administration’s Response to the Attacks

Thanks to Fox News we know that the annex (safe house) one mile from the counsulate in Benghazi was in fact a CIA outpost. We know there were several people in that annex at the time the attack began on the consulate. We know that two of the people at the annex were ex-navy Seals, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty. We know that Woods could hear the shots coming from the consulate and that he called his commander and reported that the consulate was under attack and tha he and Doherty were going to take some men and go help Ambassador Stevens and the others. We know that Woods was ordered to stand down. We know that Woods called his commander again an hour later because the attack on the consulate continued and he could hear explosions and he again asked permission to give aid to the people under attack. We know that Woods was ordered to stand down a second time. We know that Woods and Doherty disobeyed that order and fought their way into the consulate and got several people out but could not find the Ambassador. We know that Woods and te others fought their way back to the annex which was then under attack, also. We know that they got a man in position on the roof of the annex and painted with a laser the motor the attackers were setting up and asked for an air strike and reinforcements. We know that no aide was given. We know those brave men fought for four or five more hours and were finally killed by a mortar round.

Who Gave the Order to Stand Down? Why was No Aide Given?

Nearly seven weeks later we still have no answers from this administration. What about the Panetta Doctrine?

…I think bigger, problem with the Panetta doctrine. If the circumstances in Libya didn’t meet the “enough information” threshold for a rescue attempt or some other form of intervention, then what does? …

The Panetta doctrine is asinine! Several retired Generals have said as much. And, what do we hear from president Obama about who gave the order to stand down? He has diligently avoided answering that question. But, he did tell ABC News this the other day:

Really, Mr. President? I thought you said at the last debate that the buck stops with you. And, thanks again to Fox news, we know that you were in the WH Situation Room watching the attack in real-time. You, Mr. President, have to know who gave the order to stand down and if you didn’t over-ride that order, it is as if the order came from you.

It Gets Worse

The latest information leaking out is the worst of all, if true. We are now hearing that Rear Admiral Charles M. Gaouette and General Carter F. Ham, the Combatant Commander of Africa Command (AFRICOM) were both ready to send assistance to Benghazi and both were ordered to stand down. The story continues that when both men refused to stand down, they were relieved of their duty. You can read about it here, here, here, here, and here. We don’t know if this story will be proven to be true. If it is proven to be true, then the order to stand down was not an error of judgement by a field commander. It was a deliberate betrayal of our Libyan diplomatic mission that cost the lives of four brave Americans.

Dear friends, if the story about Admiral Gaouette and General Ham turns out to be true, we can not let this story die with these elections. America must learn who gave the order to stand down. That person and everyone above him in the chain of command, up to and including the Commander-in-Chief, are guilty of treason, of betrayal. We owe it to the men who died in Benghazi to identify those who betrayed them and to hold them accountable. WE OWE THEM!

With all the talk of the Ground Zero mosque (Definitely NOT an AP approved term) and Barak Obama’s religious status, there is a reminder of what it is that we are confronting. We always talk about Marxism, and the left’s complete lack of tolerance, but there is an increasing transparency on the part of the left. I don’t know if they are bolder due to Obama’s election, or they just don’t care anymore. Perhaps it is just that we are paying more attention and are therefore noticing more of the openness. No matter the cause, there are groups and individuals on the left that are simply operating in the open as Marxists.

For our current example, we look at Code Pink. Most everyone here is aware of them, but some of their more recent activities are all the more repugnant. Case in point, how Code Pink has acted towards our military, and to the families of fallen service people. Take a look at this from Big Peace.

Numerous times over the past four years I have confronted the antics of Jodie Evans and her anti-war Code Pink cronies. We’ve all seen the nightly news with them being arrested time and time again throwing their leftist temper tantrums with their pink boa feathers wrapped around their necks as they kick and scream like a two-year-old throwing a tantrum to get attention. They have sent over $600,000.00 to the terrorists in Fallujah, or as they called them, “freedom fighting” heroes. You would think treasonous acts like this would have them locked in jail. Over and over they have attacked our military recruiting offices causing thousands of dollars of damage to the offices and threatening the recruiters.

In 2008 they barricaded the recruiting office in Berkeley with the blessing of the Berkeley City Council. We at Move America Forward had all we could stomach when we heard them tell the Marines they were unwelcome, unwanted intruders, not in Iraq or Afghanistan but on American soil in Berkeley, California. Americans from across the nation joined us in Berkeley to counter-protest these anti-war hippies. Numerous times they told me they support the troops but not the war, yet over and over when I asked if they had sent care packages, phone cards, written letters, or helped the families left behind in anyway, they conveniently couldn’t remember anything they had done. Yet they had a successful fundraiser to send $600,000.00 to our enemies in Iraq? Yet Jodie Evans and her Code Pink degenerates taunted me and made light of my son’s sacrifice telling me, “Your son deserved to die in Iraq if he was stupid enough to go over there.” It took every ounce of reserve in my body to not level these idiots to the ground. These same people who call terrorists “freedom fighters” says that my son, who gave up his life for their freedoms, deserved death. (emphasis added)

I get that people disagree with the war. Many people do. Dissent a right…one that the left exercises; yet one they would eagerly deny to us. However, this behavior goes beyond simple free speech. They apparently raised money for people that were trying to kill our troops. Then, they attack family members of fallen servicemen. While at least this is free speech, it shows their overall lack of tolerance, as well as their lack of humanity.

Yes, that is Jodie Evans with Venezuelan dictator, Hugo Chavez. This is the same Hugo Chavez that has taken over any dissenting media, jailed political opponents, and even jailed people for being critical of his economic polices on Twitter. And Jerry Brown is going to take money from her? What does this say about Code Pink? I think we already know the answer to that. But what does it also say about “governor moonbeam?” Should we be surprised that a mainstream Democratic candidate is accepting money from a group that has essentially committed treason, and openly supports a communist dictator? I suppose not, but should there be some outrage out there. Maybe there’ll be some coverage from the MSM?

Waiting…five…four…three…two…one…nothing.

This, among other examples, is why I do not think there is any sense in engaging the left. Frankly, arguing with a leftist is like trying to have a rational conversation with a five-year-old. They post an asinine comment, I respond with facts, they eventually resort to name-calling and it falls apart from there. As a result, we are polarized as a nation. To be honest, I think we should be. While some will say that we’re the radicals, I submit that it is our left that is on the fringe. It is our left that is embracing dictators, like Chavez and Castro. At this blog, we’ve chronicled the left’s assaults on property rights, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, the Tenth Amendment; the list could go on and on. Groups like Code Pink and others invoke our freedom when it suits their purposes, and then acts to restrict those same freedoms for the rest of us. These are not simple disagreements based on detail or scope; this is the left attempting to enslave the rest of us. I believe that it will either be us, or them. They will either enslave us, or we will remain free, and recover the full use of our freedoms. There is not longer a center position. Frankly, we might as well be from different planets.

As I have stated in other posts, this is not a fight that will have a definitive ending point. There will not be a VE or VJ day, after which we can relax. Our leftists will never go away. Since their beliefs are not based in reality, they cannot/will not recognize that their policies have failed everywhere they have been tried, and simply persist. If the people reject them, they will say that the people are wrong, stupid, or mislead by freedom. If defeated, they will go to ground, stay in their hijacked institutions, and indoctrinate another generation of leftists, and the game will go on and on.

Code Pink might be a fringe group but the certainly do attract a lot of mainstream attention, but not mainstream condemnation. Add to that the fact that there are 70 Congress Critters that are openly socialist, and you see what I’m talking about. It’s them or us. There well be no quarter, no mercy, no summits, no bipartisanship. It boils down to freedom, or slavery.
